Hey mate, you want to wait until there is at least 3 nodes before you top them. Your plant will be able to recover quicker this way. Looking at your plant its probably read to top once the new growth comes through a bit more. Here's a link to a good guide https://www.growweedeasy.com/topping-fiming
Hope this helps :)

I personally like topping at 7 nodes. Buy anything after 3 and you should be okay

Hey @DaHomie!
If you are planing LST, you can start from now on. Just be careful to use width wires to avoid damages on the stems.
I recommend fimming or topping in this type of techniques since it will help controlling the height of the plant.
Just be gentle and don't worry if you accidentally break any stem. Just let it be if its not totally broken or use adhesive tape if you think she will not be able to recover by itself.
Have fun with that trainning!

Mutant clone adviceSo one of the clones from Candy, a (fem) Northern Lights has 3 symmetrical growth points starting at or about the 4th node and continued on the 5th. So when I top do you think the trend will continue. Any insight will be appreciated. Thankx MrYuk.

When to start 12/12Hi people. My plants are on vegetation day 26 and are 8 inches tall. My tent setup can give them room for 15 more inches for a total of 23 inches height from soil to top.
So, when do you think I should start 12/12 to maximize the plants height and yield? Thanks.2 years ago

Topping at two weeks?I wonder what the effect of topping so early will have? Week two is pretty unconventional, with most preferring 3-5 weeks. She seems pretty happy though. Hopefully this will give maximum uninterrupted ( minus of course the LST ) veg time now.Week 2
